This Magical Menagerie is fun not only for witches and wizards, but also for all enthusiasts who would like to put their magical skills (with the game UI – layout, visual design, interactive configuration and buttons), knowledge, and strategy to the test. Modest design, with engaging symbols (in line with the story), whimsical setting of 6×4 and 30 paylines and a mischievous symphony piece accompanies every spin in the Magical Store slot.
It comes with Low Volatility, large betting area (0.30 to 150 CAD), and even though the important technical characteristics like theoretical return in a long-distance and hit rate is not openly declared – after our internal tryouts and analysis, we had established that the RTP is near 96.12%, but the hit success is only 18% (i.e. insufficient).
The paytable is also not very generous (the highest-paid standard symbol – the blue potion delivers just 10x the bet for 6OAK). The good news about the provision board is that Wilds and Scatters both add value, plus all regular symbols and Wilds come constantly stacked. There is also a magical maximum prospect to be realized in this low-risk game – namely 3000x the total bet (very tempting reward for this kind of variance), achievable in the Free Spins with the highest Multiplier (x10).
Speaking about the Bonus, we have to underline that although it doesn’t come that often, this round brings an extra layer of mystery with the introduction of a 7th reel (Bonus Reel) with 5 different Boosts: Extra Wilds, Expanding Wilds, Multipliers, Symbol Transformation and Expanding Symbols. We already love KA Gaming’s other titles with special Bonus Reel(s) and embedded into them additional features:
- Bonus Mania slot (2019)
- Super Bonus Mania slot (2019)
- Fire Dragons slot (2019)
- Candy Mania slot (2020)
- Bonus Mania Deluxe slot (2020)
- Fa Cai Destiny slot (2021)
Waiting for the Bonus round to be initiated might feel long at times, but statistically, that happens in a reasonable interval. And there is another positive: you can earn 50 Free Spins with 6 Scatters, where re-triggers and Multipliers between x2 and x10 are highly likely.
Long story short, although simple (qua gameplay) this slot is entertaining and we think we will be back soon to try our luck at the Magical Store again. We can recommend it with real credits to beginners and to regular players who like low-risk sessions, as it demonstrates the ability to: A) deliver decent wins and B) offer extended playing time.

Bonus Features of Magical Store slot
- Wilds – There are 2 types of Wilds. They both act as a substitution for standard symbols in case there is a gap in some paying combination.
- The green Wilds appear only in the Bonus when the Green Leaf feature is activated.
- The yellow Wilds appear in both base and Bonus spins. Such Wilds can fall single, double or full reel stacked. They have a value attached to them (i.e. can construct their own combinations), contributing with 13.33x/6.67x/2.67x/1.33x on payline for respectively 6/5/4/3OAK.
- Scatters & Free Spins – The cauldron full of magic stones is the Scatter. It is the top-value symbol providing 100x/30x/10x/2x the bet for respectively 6/5/4/3 Scatters anywhere on the grid. Any of those formations trigger a Bonus with 50/2/18/10 FS and open an extra reel addition.
The 7th reel (Bonus Reel) contains 5 different features. It spins together with the other 6 reels and it creates extra opportunities for boosting the win of the specific spin. The following Bonus Reel features are available:
- Sand Clock – If dropping centrally, the Sand Clock symbol replaces all low-value icons (card suits) with a random high-value icon, creating a large number of pay combinations.
- Magic Ink – If dropping centrally, the Ink Pot symbol will select a random symbol to expand and so 1) the regular wins (if any) from the paylines will be calculated, and 2) the chosen symbol will expand on each reel it is present. The expanded formations then pay regardless of whether they are adjacent or not (similar to the “Book of…” mechanic).
- Flickering Flame – If dropping centrally, the Flame will swap 1 or more random symbols on the grid with yellow Wilds.
- Multipliers – If dropping centrally, any Multiplier sign (x2/x3/x5/x8/x10) will reinforce all available winning combos.
